I've been using this for about a week and so far, it's great for keeping me matte! It is sticky on application, but pats in well and dries in about 30 seconds for makeup application. I like it!

dry and patchy!!!
I loved the regular power grip primer but this was not it…When you apply it, there are some spots that get SO patchy and caked looking. Under the eyes were the worst… When you inevitably blend out from your under eyes or to your neck, the areas where primer was applied at the edge of a facial feature seem to cake so badly. Switching between a thin layer of primer or huge globs didn’t matter. I applied a full face this morning, looked at myself, cleaned it off, and then redid my beat without primer and it looks ten times better. I should’ve taken photos with primer on bc what the heck.

An affordable primer that gets the job done!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great affordable primer! The jelly consistency and the thick tackiness is great for long time wear. It blends into the skin easily and creates a nice sticky base for the rest of your makeup. Definitely was a great product to keep my makeup on and in place during my entire event while running around!

Lightweight and gripping, this primer keeps makeup
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The e.l.f. Power Grip Primer has a lightweight gel texture that feels slightly tacky at first, helping makeup grip onto the skin for longer-lasting wear. The performance is impressive because it smooths the skin while keeping foundation fresh and in place throughout the day without feeling heavy. Its application is simple and even, blending easily into the skin and absorbing quickly after a few seconds. In terms of sensitivity, the formula feels comfortable and non-irritating on the skin, making it suitable for daily use. The absorption is balanced, leaving a hydrated finish without excessive oiliness or stickiness once it sets. Overall, it's an affordable and effective primer that improves makeup longevity while giving the skin a sn *n, fresh-looking base.

Definitely good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The e.l.f. Power Grip Primer has almost no scent, which I love for sensitive skin. The feel is slightly tacky but not heavy, helping makeup grip all day. It fits well under foundation with smooth application and a hydrating gel formulation that doesn’t clog pores.

Perfect for an all-day matte look — this primer gr
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This e.l.f power grip primer is absolutely perfect! I apply it after I do my skincare, apply proper grip primer, and then apply my matte makeup. This is definitely the primer to use when you want to be matte ALL day! When you first set it, it definitely makes you feel like whatever you apply on top will stick. I like to apply a little extra on my eyelids too for eyeshadow. The finish is so nice and matte. I took pictures around 2:30pm after applying at 7am and it still looked good. I recommend this 100%

Good hydrating
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer feels lightweight and hydrating on the skin, and the texture is nice overall. However, I personally didn’t love the way my makeup sat on top of it - it looked a little uneven after a few hours. It might work better for different skin types or lighter makeup looks.

Poreless skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like that it hold my makeup in place without moving at all. Even on warmer days I had no issues. My skin looked pore-less with a thicker consistency it does go on thicker than a normal primer.

Primer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that it is easy to apply and remove at the same time. it has a sticky texture and that helps a lot with the rest of makeup. And that the products are better pigmented!
